Older Men With Roommates?

For the love of God, why are there so many men with roommates in Los Angeles????

I haven’t even begun to share the details about the guy I’m supposed to be dating “exclusively” because I don’t think it’s a good idea for me to have agreed to that, and so soon.

So in my moment of doubt (and being a tad bit trifling), I went ahead and signed up on another dating site. You know, to poke around a little bit a see if I stumbled on someone who has it a little more together.

And guess what happened today?

I exchanged numbers with a guy who seemed interesting enough. We’re about 10 minutes into the conversation and he starts complaining about not liking the city he recently moved to. He mumbles something about having been too rushed and not taking his time to find a place, so I asked for details. Sure enough, he finally tells me he has a roommate and even better?

It’s a female.

Got a 4 bedroom beach house with plenty of bathrooms and living space? Totally understandable. Sharing cramped spaces in the basic Los Angeles apartment building? Not so much.

I know what some of you may be thinking. Just know that it’s merely a preference to consider dating a man who is independent and self-sustaining. It isn’t about judging their situation which for most part, may only be temporary and you better believe there are many women who think like this.

But what happens if things progress? So now it’s me and him planning visits around a roommate, considering their plans, wants or even moods. And what about when it comes to fucking? Tell me to stop moaning so loud, stop grabbing the headboards and no more smacking of the ass?

This is the FOURTH man in a row who has approached me with a sketchy living situation.

I just can’t and if I do, it’ll be half -asses because I’m too damn old to play the tip toe game for someone’s roommate. All I ask is that a man possess the basics, and of he can come with more, even better. It’s sad to know that the older they get, the worse off they seem to be.

Hangover - a let down following great excitement or excess. Wow. This one sentence describes nearly all of my dating and relationship experiences!
I'm a 30 year-old woman muddling through the Los Angeles dating scene and yes - Believe all that you've heard about the screwed up men and women in La-La Land.
This blog is of my actual experiences that will either make you chuckle, laugh out loud or maybe say "aw.....".
